Re: 10-connection limit on TCP/IP? Matt Newman22-Dec-01 5:25 Matt Newman 22-Dec-01 5:25  I don't know about the 10 connection limit. It seems pretty a little weird.

Sean Cundiff22-Dec-01 5:43 Sean Cundiff 22-Dec-01 5:43  This is correct. Check out the article on msdn: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q122920 -Sean ---- "Vigilance With Pride" Re: 10-connection limit on TCP/IP? 22-Dec-01 13:32 22-Dec-01 13:32  The article is not clear about which network level the limit has been applied to. It doesn't say that the limit is on TCP/IP. Maybe its only on products like IIS? Anybody actually verified this experimentally? Re: 10-connection limit on TCP/IP? Sean Cundiff22-Dec-01 16:50 Sean Cundiff 22-Dec-01 16:50  The article states a 10-user connection limit. Multiple connection from one user (on a single machine) count as one connection. Two users from one machine (i.e. a service running under the system account and a user) connecting count as two connections. IIS connections usually connect under a special anonymous account IUSR_<machine name>. So all anonymous web connections count as ONE connection. If you set up a secure website (login required) there will be a 10-user simultaneous connection limit. This sounds like a limit on the number of users, not a limit on the number of TCP/IP connections. Check out the section named "More Information". It specifically talks about having two windows sockets (socket=1/2 of a TCP/IP connection) count as one connection. -Sean ---- "Vigilance With Pride" Re: 10-connection limit on TCP/IP? Roger Wright17-Jan-02 19:57 Roger Wright 17-Jan-02 19:57  There is a ten-connection limit on the Workstation/Professional editions, but it doesn't apply to IIS connections. It is intended, I believe, to limit RAS users on small networks. As an interesting sidenote, I attended a training meeting in Phoenix with Microsoft when they were handing out copies of Win2K Beta3, and found myself chatting at lunch with one of the engineers. He mentioned in passing that the Workstation and Server products were essentially the same animal, but optimized in the Registry for different roles. That leads me to believe that a sufficiently clever person (myself not included) might be able to open up this restriction to accomodate his/her needs. It's worth a look... Advanced TCP Logger v3.52 18-Dec-01 4:24 18-Dec-01 4:24  Advanced TCP Logger v3.52 This program is a simple proxy server(port-mapper). It is an ideal tool for monitoring any network software or for researching network protocols. Log files with all traffic that has passed through this program are organized in a nice manner and can be saved in a separate folder. Info: http://www.ntndis.com/utilities/atcp2log.htm Download: http://www.ntndis.com/downloads/atcp2log.zip Main features: + Written in pure Windows API + Display of all transmitted data + Total transferred bytes counter + Command line options + Packet Viewer What is the purpose of this program? When can this program be used? When can you needed it? - If you want a simple proxy server (e.g. port mapper, port redirector). - It you want to count traffic. - If you want to save all the traffic packets in files, which you might want to analyze later. - If you want to study a format of network packages(protocols) used in any unknown programs. - If you are the developer of the network equipment or software and you have to solve problems from area "Embedded-Ethernet", "microWEB". I.e. generally IP-access to devices based on microcontrollers. - If you want to see "live" activity of the network protocols (e.g.: pop3, smtp, http, icq, irc). - You want to disassemble activity of scripts of any web-site and introduce automation into operations.

Connect the iPaq with win2000 17-Dec-01 18:35 17-Dec-01 18:35  When try to test the connection to Windows CE device in the Platform Manager of embedded Vc environment, it gives the following error message: Unable to connect to the device. Please make sure you have installed the underlying transport (e.g., ActiveSync) and have a device connected. This problem may even occur when Microsoft ActiveSync already has a connection established to the Windows CE device at the same time. How to solve this.

Huh? User 842015-Dec-01 10:11 User 8420 15-Dec-01 10:11  I have something interesting going on... Operating System: Windows 2000 (SP2) Whenever I use Start>Run (or Windows + R) to run an app (usually "regedit", but it does the same with notepad or any application) it correctly launches the application but also displays the error message "Cannot find the file 'regedit' (or one of its components). Make sure the path and filename are correct and that all required libraries are available." After I press "OK" on this messagebox the "Run" dialog re-appears. The application IS running and IS useable. I've searched high and low on the internet (including Microsoft's site) to no avail. Apparently I'm the only person on the planet that this happens to. It is consistent (happens every time). If I use "Run" with a URL it works OK, it only does this with applications. This isn't a "show stopper" but it certainly is annoying. Any ideas??

Michael Dunn15-Dec-01 16:35 Michael Dunn 15-Dec-01 16:35  Could be a virus, or the remains of a virus that incompletely removed. Some Windows viruses associate themselves with .EXE files. Look in HKCR\.exe and HKCR\exefile and see if there's anything suspicious-looking there. --Mike-- http://home.inreach.com/mdunn/ "Not our fault we are intellectually superior to the rest of the office." -- Paul Watson in the Lounge, 12/12/2001 Sonork - 100.10414 AcidHelm Big fan of Alyson Hannigan. Re: Start>Run... Huh? User 842016-Dec-01 6:31 User 8420 16-Dec-01 6:31  Nothing "suspicious-looking"... ...but then again, I have no idea what I'm looking at in this area of the registry. One thing that strikes me as odd, is that I can't find any hint of this issue anywhere on the internet. It's kinda tricky to search for, but I haven't found a thing. I had also considered the possiblity of virii, but I would have thought somebody else would have noticed/reported it. Oh well, maybe it's a really, REALLY bad virus writer and I was his/her first victim and the virus died. Mike Mullikin - Sonork 100.10096 "Oh, you hate your job? Why didn't you say so?

Michael Dunn16-Dec-01 15:18 Michael Dunn 16-Dec-01 15:18  Anything suspicious would be under HKCR\exefile\shell, especially shell\open\command. The default value of the command key should be "%1" %*. If there's an .exe name there, instead of %1, then it's likely a virus. --Mike-- My really out-of-date homepage "Not our fault we are intellectually superior to the rest of the office." -- Paul Watson in the Lounge, 12/12/2001 Sonork - 100.10414 AcidHelm Big fan of Alyson Hannigan.

Any idea what executable is run when I use Start/Run? Nothing new gets added to the Applications or Processes in Task Manager. Is it part of explorer.exe??

Std - Handles Jens Kreiensiek14-Dec-01 4:36 Jens Kreiensiek 14-Dec-01 4:36  Hi All, I'm writing a service, that spawns several new processes. These new procs can either be gui apps or console apps. I redirect the std handles (stdout/stderr/stdin) via anonymous pipes as seen in well known msdn articles. After creating the new processes I wait for all my pipe-handles to become signaled. So far so good. Everything works fine with console apps, but if I start a gui app (e.g. notepad.exe), the pipe handle (stdout) gets signaled and a following ReadFile() blocks forever!. Okay, I tried to check for available data with PeekNamedPipe(). It's return value is always 0 (zero), so I skip the ReadFile(). But now the pipe handle becomes signaled ever and ever again and my cpu is at 100% with peeking the stdout pipe... I'm lost. What does Notepad.exe do with the std - handles? Any hints would be very appreciated!!! Frozen greetings from Germany, Jens Re: Std - Handles 567890123427-Dec-01 3:24 5678901234 27-Dec-01 3:24  Maybe the problem is that you try to talk with GUI applications by the same way as with console applications. They should be handled by the other way. After creating the process use WaitForInputIdle() to wait for it's initialization. FindWindow, EnumWindows etc. allow to get window handle, after this talk with this window using PostMessage. Check out also windows hooks (SetWindowsHookEx). There is nothing to do with pipes here. Re: Std - Handles Jens Kreiensiek28-Dec-01 1:37 Jens Kreiensiek 28-Dec-01 1:37  ...sure, but my problem is the strange behavior. I don't know whether I start a gui- or console application, so I can't differentiate between them. If a gui applicaton doesn't touch the std-handles, why do they behave in such a strange fashion? Re: Std - Handles 567890123429-Dec-01 19:10 5678901234 29-Dec-01 19:10  Maybe function IsGUIThread may help you.
